Mr. Dalley frequently spoke out of Qen. 13: n< 12, "Abram dwelled, in the land of it Cnnaata, and Lot dwelled In"""005 tr cltiee of the plain. and pitched his tent toward Sodom." What Lot lost ? by pitching his tent toward Sodom ~ was the main thought developed. 1. He severed association with his best earthly friend, God's friend. 2. His wealth wasted possibly by a foolish, society-loving wife. 3. Almost unconsciously his influence over bis family waned. 4. The unconsciousness of God's presence in his home. " 6. His personal honour disappeared. j 7 : < . *' The> speaker wondered if this awful ease is not being reproduced lh Washington. He plead earnestly with those who may have pitched their lives on too low a plane. His illustration of pro feasing Christians entertaining feelings of hatred and spite and prejudice, and thus blocking the way of God'* kibfdom*left * profound impression. Mr. Dolly thanked the choir_and congregation for the good refreshing singing, and plead with the young people to sland by the church of the living God?to keep out of Sodom. t;/ BarrlcM today at 4 to 5 and t p. m floats Ins and all welcome.
